Private Fishing Tour off the Coast of Hanga Roa

Looking for something different to do on Easter Island? Don't miss this Rapa Nui fishing experience off the coast of Hanga Roa.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel on Easter Island to embark on this adventure along the coastline of Hanga Roa.

At Hanga Piko, the fishing port of the island's capital, we'll meet with a Rapa Nui native and expert fisherman who will be our guide. We'll board a boat and venture into the Pacific, sailing along the coast of Hanga Roa.

While enjoying the views of the island from the water, we'll gain insight into the traditional fishing techniques used by the Rapa Nui. We'll see how the handmade hook and harpoon are used, and learn how the locals are able to hold their breath for two minutes to catch fish.

After the fishing demonstration, we'll continue exploring the coast of Hanga Roa and its natural treasures, including its imposing cliffs and caves. On board, we'll enjoy views while learning about the history and culture of Rapa Nui. If interested, you can also take a refreshing dip and go snorkelling!

We'll make our way to Hanga Piko, where this fishing experience will come to an end. After a total of 3-4 hours of activity, we'll take you back to your accommodation.
